Grad students?

I’m currently a grad student getting my masters in special education with a concentration in intellectual and developmental disabilities education.

I tried to go back to school right after undergrad during my first year teaching and it was cray

I took two and a half years off and this is my first semester back.

I graduated undergrad in 2017.

Let’s commiserate.

I just dropped my second M.S. program earlier this year because of logistical problems, and not wanting to write another thesis 17 months after I defended the first.

I'm looking into PHD programs. It. Is. So. Much.

I'm 100% terrified of the potential workload, especially with the labs I've looked at reaching out to.

(My first M.S. is in Cybersecurity. I would not trade the satisfaction of being done with that for anything.)

I'm pursuing my Master's in Anthropology. It was going well at first. Towards the end of my second year, I felt as though unexpected challenges were presented to me by my thesis advisor, and then she dropped me. (Absolutely had a crash out). Thank goodness I had been communicating with another professor throughout this time, and they took me under their wing. I'll be applying to do my ethics this week.

I'm currently attending an online program to get my MA in Communications with a focus on "Digital Content" (quotes being used because this class so far has been more about managing organizations and marketing way more than I was expecting from the name alone). I'm looking at in-person programs in my state for both MA/MFA and PhD programs for my field to see what they all have to offer.

Grad students looking to stay on top of their academic progress will find tools like the MOE student management system incredibly helpful. From tracking course registrations to monitoring grades and attendance, it makes managing student records much simpler. For anyone navigating the complexities of graduate studies, having a centralized platform can save time and reduce stress.
